Here's something I find a bit amusing about updating flash player (FP) in IE when another browser is set as the default browser. When I update FP in IE - I have Opera set as my default browser in Windows 7 - and the update has successfully completed, a notice appears confirming that fact. But, this acknowledgement of successful updating of FP in IE appears in Opera, the default browser. Even though the reason this happens is obviously the fact that a browser other than IE is set as default browser, it just seems odd, almost a bit amusing, that this notification does not appear in the browser to which it applies.
The notification of successful updating of FP looks like the image below:
